So I've been in Philly for a day now and I already feel much more relaxed and comfortable with everything. Most everyone else is very much like me- anxious about not being able to learn the language, not fit in with our community, not be able to really get through to our students- and although many of the things we share are anxieties, it's so comforting to know that I'm not the only one with these fears. We're all also very excited about the upcoming adventure and ready for it to actually begin. I can't believe it's finally here! 18+ months in the making and I leave for the airport in about 2 hours!
Well, this may be my last blog for a bit, concidering I have no clue when I'll get internet access again. All i know is 3am bus ride to New York, wait in the airport for 6 hours, 15 hour flight to Johannesburg, 5 hour layover, one hour flight to Maputo, then sleep in a fabulous hotel :) Wish me luck and lots of sleep!
